GeoGuesser Challenge
GeoGuesser - a game of geography that's a little bit addictive.
Based on the clues in the photograph, which you can manipulate to get different angles, you have to guess where you are in the world. Five photos per challenge. I imagine with all the well-traveled people on this forum, the scores would be better than average. Susan |

I usually got the country and sometimes state without moving from the start point. To get the town and street took a little detective work. Especially if you couldn't read Japanese. :D TR |
Whoa, sir. I'm impressed! (I'm also glad I didn't post my own score, now.)
How many rounds did you play? Susan |

Would have been higher had I listened to my inner voice and gone with Norway instead of Iceland. Addictive game. :D |

I played the first one to figure out how it works. After that it's relatively easy to score well - especially with Google open in another window to chase down the clues. A little persistence and the ability to relate terrain to maps helps. And yes, I see how it can become addictive.

I, too, played for about 5 minutes with Google Maps open in another window - did the first three (6748 0.015km off; 6474 0.062km off; 6422 0.673km off) and closed it while ahead and to avoid another addictive Internet time sucker.
However, I may pop back in and do a few more periodically. ;) Richard |

Got an easy one with a drop right in front of the Universal Studios, FL globe. After digging through some backward valley in Romania for way too long looking for any identifying marks. Way to easy to spend time on this. Addictive. TR |
Anyone come across the underwater location yet. All I could identify was a coral reef running roughly N-S, brain coral, and some unidentified tropical fish.:confused:
I won't tell you where it is, but I will tell you that it is not off the coast of Indonesia. If anyone finds this one and figures out how to tell where the hell it is, please let me know. Had an two easy ones: Port Arthur, TX and right in front of the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Located within 0.001 km. :D |
I ended up underwater on one but I "walked" out onto the beach and onto a street, It could be somewhere on the African Continent ;)
|
An underwater location !?!?!?! :confused: :eek:
Awwww com'on guys, I've got stuff to do today. :( |
